Royal National Lifeboat Institution
22, CHARING CROSS ROAD, LONDON, W.C2.
The Lifeboats have made
A MAGNIFICENT CONTRIBUTION TO THE WAR.
Since the outbreak of War over 1,300 lives have been saved from
II.M. Ships, Mine Sweepers, Torpedo Boats, Patrol Boats, Seaplanes,
and other Vessels which have been torpedoed, mined, or in distress
as a direct result of the War.
Altogether, over 3,700 lives have been rescued by Lifeboats in this
period, and have thus been preserved for Great Britain and her Allies
OVER 55,500 LIVES SAVED SINCE 1824.
Those who wish to perpetuate the memory of the gallant death, <>n
the field of honour, of a Husband, a Son, or a Brothei, or to pay a
lasting tribute to a Relative 6r Friend, may, by endowing and naming
a Lifeboat, provide a noble
MEMORIAL, MORE LASTING THAN BRONZE,
a living instrument for the saving of valuable lives, and the means of
maintaining among our maritime population the qualities of courage,
endurance and humanity, which are the best characteristics of our race.

BATH
The Hot Springs of Bath, rising at a natural tem-
perature of 120°, rich in radium emanation, have
never been in greater demand nor more appreciated
than they are to-day. Wounded soldiers and
invalided civilians alike are finding renewed health
and strength in the Bath treatment.
The waters are administered at the extensive Bathing
Establishment by every means that science can devise
for the balneotherapeutic treatment of disease.
Rheumatism and Neuritis and " Nerve Shock " are
but a few of the complaints successfully treated here.
Bright, cheerful, restful surroundings and good
music help the invalid to regain health, and provide
for the pleasure and entertainment of those who come
to Bath only for a rest and change.
The Roman Baths of Bath, still standing in wonder-
ful preservation, are amongst the finest Roman
antiquities in Europe. No place in Britain is richer
in beautiful buildings and historic houses of the
XVIII century.
To many visitors the architectural beauty and his-
torical associations of the city appeal very strongly,
while others are attracted by the delightful walks
and excursions all around.
There are first-class concerts at the Pump Room
every day, frequent special performances, and good
companies at the Theatres.
"For 2000 Years"
is the title of a recently published booklet giving
particulars about the Hot Springs of Bath, which will
be sent post free, together with Hotel and Apartment
List and other information, on application to —

PREFACE.
♦
HE forthcoming Session will be the eighth of the present
Parliament, which has now been in existence
for a longer period than any of its twenty- jf**?*1
nine predecessors since the date of the Union. mr Im"
Having met for the first time on January 31st,
191 1, it has sat for upwards of seven years, and during that period
considerably more than a quarter of the Representation of the whole
House has been changed. The alterations in personnel
will be found in full detail under * CHANGES SINCE GENERAL
Election, Dec. 1910," on pages vii to xxviii. These show JJ
that during the present Parliament the unusual number of
220 Bye-Elections have taken place, resulting in the return of 180 new
Members. 101 Members have resigned their Seats, or vacated same
by reason either of appointment to Offices of profit under the Crown
or on elevation to or succession to Peerages. 79 Members have died,
29 have been raised to the Peerage, 76 have 'been sworn of the Privy
Council, 47 have been added to the Roll of Baronets, 58 have received
the honour of Knighthood, 1 the Order of Merit, 2 have been nominated
Companions of Honour and 38 Companions of the Orders of Knighthood*
1 Member was disqualified, being subsequently re-elected, and there
have been 1 1 successions to Peerages and 4 to Baronetcies, while at the
time of going to press there are not any seats vacant.
It is curious to note that although the present Parliament was rtself
elected under the provisions of the Septennial Act of 1716, and by the
Parliament Act of 191 1 reduced its life and that of subse-
quent Parliaments to five years, nevertheless by the irony _
of fate it has on more than one occasion extended that
period until it has now lasted even longer than would have been the
case under the old regime, if it had come to an end merely by effluxion
of time.
The next General Klection, it is more than probable, will be held
00 the New Register under the extended Franchise enacted by the
Representation of the People Act, passed on the last day ^
of the last Session (February 6th, 1918), which provides for A* °rm
the enfranchisement of women over 30 years of age, and
for the taking of votes of persons in Naval and Military employment,
thus adding some 8,000,000 voters (2,000,000 men and 6,000,000 women)
to the Register, which in future is to be revised half-yearly.
A list of the Constituencies showing the Redistribution
of Seats under the new Act is given in alphabetical order bu'fi^* "f
on pages 506 to 510, and shows that the number of Members a#a|g
of Parliament for the United Kingdom will in future be
707 in place of 670 as heretofore, their distribution among Counties,
vi Preface,
Boroughs, and Universities being set out under " Constitution of the
House of Commons " on p. 1, while the essential provisions of the
measure are indicated among " Explanations of Technical Parliamentary
Expressions, etc.", pages xxxv to xlix. Of the yj additional Seats, 33 are
apportioned to England and Wales, 2 to Scotland, and 2 to Ireland.
Some additional M.P.'s have during the past twelve months been
killed while on active service, the number now reaching 13; their
, names will be found recorded in the Obituary on page xxiv.
ar s There have also been further casualties reported among the
Official Staffs of both Houses of the Legislature, while
a number of Members have received Honours in connection with the war.
Several new Ministerial Offices have been constituted during the past
year, and although the War Cabinet itself, owing to Sir Edward Carson's
recent resignation, now again only numbers 5, the size
. of the full Ministry has, under war conditions, swollen
to abnormal proportions, many of the Ministries also now
being provided with two Parliamentary Secretaries.
Reform of the House of Lords is again in the air, but at the moment
of writing all eyes are turned towards the Convention sitting
"s in Dublin and charged with the task of trying to find a
onven ion. sojutjon t0 t^e jrjsjj proDlem.
The return of Sinn Fein Members of Parliament for certain Irish
Constituencies adds a novel element to Parliamentary life,
l?ovc as none of these Members has yet taken the oath or his
Element. „, tt

"Debrett's House of Commons and the Judicial Bench"
is divided into two main sections : the first forms a complete Parlia-
mentary Guide, with biographies of M.P.'s, all Pollings at
Scope of the ]ast twQ Generai and an subsequent Bye-Elections, list
* e °r " of Privy Councillors, abridged Peerage, and detailed Ex-
planation of Technical Parliamentary Expressions, while the second
portion is devoted to Judges of the High Court and of the County
Courts, Recorders, Sheriffs, Sheriff-Substitutes, Metropolitan and Sti-
pendiary Magistrates, Judges of the Dominions and Colonies, etc., etc.

CAMPING OUTFITS
Extract from Truth, October 3rd, 1917.
" In order to answer a recent enquiry from the front,
I obtained particulars of some ingenious devices for miti-
gating minor discomforts of camp life on active service,
especially those of cold and wet weather ; for example
a practical weather-proof tent that can be folded into
a parcel small enough to go into an overcoat pocket ;
a waterproof groundsheet weighing less than i lb., and
a capital sleeping bag which weighs no more than
ij lb. These are among many useful articles supplied
by the Lightweight Tent Co., 6i, High Holborn,
London, W.C.i, and I think my Service readers may be
glad to know of them."

by the Representation of the People Act,

of the principal offices of State are re-
lieved from the obligation to submit them-
selves to re-election, upon a transfer from
one office to another ; the Law Offio
on transfer do not vacate. The legislation
on the subject is tangled and obscure, but
the result, broadly speaking, is that holders
of the higher political offices vacate their
on appointment, except in <.

of minor political offices, who are 1
pointed directly by the Crown, e.g. Under-
of State, do not vacate their
on appointment ; and that Judges, and
members of the permanent Civil Service are
alined for a seat in Parliament. Holders
of the following Offices in the Ministry vacate

reading. After being read a second time
the bill, except in the case of a bill im-
posing taxes, or a consolidated fund or
appropriation bill, stands committed to one
of the four Standing Committees, unless the
House otherwise order. Bills so excepted
go to a committee of the whole House.
When the details of the bill have been
considered in Committee, and the bill has
been debated clause by clause, the chair-
man of the committee reports it to the
House. This he does by stating to the
Speaker that " the committee has gone
through the bill," and has either "made
amendments thereunto " or " directed him
to report the same without amendment."
If no amendment has been made, the bill
is ordered to be read a third time either
forthwith or on a future day ; but if the
committee have altered it the bill is ordered
to be considered as amended. If the amend-
ments are considerable, it is customary to
reprint the bill. On the consideration of a
bill as amended, amendments may be made
or new clauses (of which notice has been
given) may be added, such as could have
been proposed in Committee. A bill may
also be committed to a Select Committee
after second reading, but must in that case,
after it has passed the Select Committee, be
recommitted to a Committee of the whole
House On the third reading the judgment
of the House is expressed upon the entire
bill, and only verbal amendments can at thi.^
stage be made. During the progress of the
bill the House may divide on the following
questions : ist, on the motion for leave of
introduction (unless the Bill is presented
under the 1002 rule) ; 2nd, on the second
reading ; 3rd, on a motion to commit the
bill to a Committee other than a Standing
Committee, that the bill be recommitted ;
4th, that it be read a third time. These are
exclusive of the divisions that may be taken
on amendments proposed to be made to the
bill in committee, or on its consideration
as amended. After the passing of a bill,
the Clerk of the House takes it to the bar
of the House of Lords, and hands it to the
Clerk of Parliaments, signed and endorsed
in Norman French, with a request for con-
currence. In the Upper House it passes
through similar forms to those of the Com-
mons. If the Lords agree with the Com-
mons in the principle of a measure, but differ
on matters of detail, the bill is returned to
the Commons, bearing the amendments the
Lords propose : these are considered by the
Lower House, and if disagreed to, the bill
is returned back to the Lords with a mes-
sage assigning reasons for the disagreement.
A Public Bill, other than a Money Bill, as
defined by the Parliament Act, 191 1 (see
Money Bill), having been passed by the House
of Commons in three successive sessions, and
having been sent up to the House of Lords
one month before the end of the session, if
rejected by the House of Lords in each of
those sessions, can then be presented direct to
His Majesty for the Royal Assent, provided
that two years have elapsed between the date
of second reading in the first session of the Bill
in the House of Commons, and the date at
which it passes there in the third session. A
Bill is considered rejected by the House of
Lords unless it is passed by that chamber,
either without amendment or only with
' amendments agreed to by both Houses.
Differences between the Houses were for-
merly settled by a conference, but this
practice has now become obsolete. Acts of
amnesty are read only once in each House.
Bills that have passed both Houses remain
with the Lords, except those of supply,
which are sent back to the Commons, to be
by the Speaker presented at the bar of the
Lords for the Royal assent.
Board of Agriculture and
FISHERIES, Thi: President ok. Is head
of the Government Department controlling
matters dealing with lands, animals, rivers,
and the sea, as well as the Ordnance Survey.
This department, founded in 1889 as to
agriculture, was extended to cover fisheries
in 1903.
Board of Education, President
of. Has control of this Government De-
partment of Education for England and
Wales, and supervises the distribution of
the Government grants towards elementary,
secondary, technical. University, and all
other forms of public education ; the de-
partment has a large inspection and exami-
1 nation staff.
' Board of Trade, The. Considers all
matters especially relating to trade and
commercial relations. It consists of a Presi-
dent and several high officers of State,
though it is practically managed by a Presi-
dent and Parliamentary Secretary. It has
the general superintendence of all matters
relating to merchant ships and seamen, and
exercises a supervision over railways, har-
bours, electric lighting, the administration
of the Law of Bankruptcy, the registration
of Joint Stock Companies, etc., while it also
exercises financial control over the principal
lighthouse authorities. It collects and pub-
lishes statistics of the revenue, trade, com-
merce, wealth, population, etc. , of the United
Kingdom and its dependencies, as well as of
foreign countries.
Bribery. Both the giver and the
receiver of a bribe can be put into the wit-
ness-box and be compelled to answer any
questions, however they might criminate
themselves. The giver must say to whom
he gave, and what he gave, and where he
procured the cash. The receiver must say
what he received, and from whom he received
it. Any person who gives or receives a bribe
is disfranchised for life, and his name is to be
printed at the foot of every succeeding re-
gister of voters for that place in a distinct
list, headed " disqualified for bribery, treat-
ing, or undue influence." A candidate
personally guilty of bribery is incompetent
to sit in a Parliament for seven years. He is
liable to a penalty of 100/. to any person
who will sue lor it. He is liable to an in-
dictment for misdemeanour, and to be pun-
ished with fine and imprisonment. He is
incompetent to vote at any Parliamentary
or municipal election ; he cannot hold any
municipal or judicial office ; and, if a magis-
trate, is to be removed from the commission
of the peace. The offences of "bribery,"
"treating," and "undue and corrupt in-
fluence" are defined by statute law, especially
by the Corrupt, etc. , Practices Prevention Act.

Budgf.t, Tiik. Is ihe financial state-
ment laid annually by the Chancellor of the
Exchequerbefore Parliament of the estimated
public income and expenditure of the follow-
ing or current financial year. In it he
mentions what taxes it is proposed to re-
peal, to reduce, or augment, and what new
ones are to be imposed. In his speech
on this occasion the Chancellor reviews the
financial condition of the country, comparing
the income and expenditure of the previous
year with those of preceding years, justifying
the changes that are proposed to be made,
and estimating their probable effects.

of any Member, unless the Speaker or the
Chairman of Committees withholds hisassent.
Colonies, Secretary of State for
the. Has under his control matters con-
nected with the government of our extensive
colonial possessions.
COMMITTALS. The House of Commons
has the power to repress any aggression com-
mitted upon its privileges, and it can order
into custody any person so offending. Such
imprisonment, however, expires at the end of
the session.
Committee of Public Accounts,
The. Examines the accounts showing the
appropriation of sums granted annually by
Parliament to meet the public expenditure.
It consists of not less than eleven members
(the more usual number being fifteen), who
are nominated at the commencement of
each session.
Committee on Public Petitions,
Th e. Reports throughout the session a classi-
fied list of the petitions presented to the
House, and scrutinises them for the purpose
of seeing whether or not they are in order.
I '< immittees, Standing. There are
four of these, consisting of not less than 60
nor more than 80 members, appointed by
the House of Commons pursuant to Stand-
ing Order, to which all bills stand com-
mitted after second reading, unless the
House otherwise order, except Bills im-
posing taxes, or consolidated fund or ap-
propriation or provisional order Bills.
Committees. Those of the whole
House are generally for the purpose of con-
sidering resolutions, or the details of a bill,
or for financial purposes, such as those for
"Supply" or "Ways and Means." Select
Committees are for specific purposes, and the
numbers composing them, as a rule, consist
of fifteen members. Presence of strangers is
generally permitted by Commons Committees
while witnesses are under examination, but
not while the Committee deliberates. Mem-
bers are entitled to be present throughout
Committee sittings, unless the House other-
wise order, or unless it be a Secret Com-
mittee. The consideration of private bills is
referred to Committees consisting of four
members. Under Standing Order, Select
Committees can sit during the sitting of
the House, except while the House is at
prayers. When the whole House goes into

written message upon matters in which it is
desirable that the two Houses should co-
operate. At a " free conference " the subject
of the written message may be taken into
debate. Conferences are not now often
resorted to, having been practically super-
seded by informal negotiations between lead-
ing members of the two Houses.
Controverted Elections. The trial
of election petitions is regulated by a sta-
tute which transfers the entire jurisdiction
to the Courts of Law. A petition complain-
ing of an undue election must be presented
within 21 days after the return of the writ,
unless it questions the return on an allegation
of corrupt practices, etc.. in which case it
may be presented at any time within 28 days
atter the day of payment. Thus the practice
of promising at the election and paying after
the time had elapsed for the presentation of a
petition is met by permission being given to
petition between 28 days after the payment
of the bribe, whensoever made. At the time
of presentation of a petition, or within three
days after, security for ^1,000 is to be given
by those who present it for payment of all
costs, charges, and expenses that may become
payable by the petition.
Count-out. If a member takes notice
of the number present, the Speaker counts
the House, and if forty members be not pre-
sent, the Speaker adjourns the House without
question put, till next sitting-day. Under
the existing Standing Orders of the House
cannot be counted out between 8.15 and
9.15 o'clock p.m. [See No House.]
Courts of Revision. [See Registra-
tion of Voters and Revising Barrister.]
Demise of the Crown. Since the
Reform Act of 1867 the Demise of the
Crown does not necessitate a Dissolution,
but if at the time of the Sovereign's death
Parliament happens to be adjourned or
prorogued it must meet immediately. If,
however, there is no Parliament in existence
at the moment, the old Parliament again
meets, and may serve for six months. Since
1901 the holding of any office under the
Crown, whether within or without the
Hritish Dominions, is not affected by
the Demise of the Crown.

-ion, A. Is the mode of taking
the votes of each House of Parliament. In
the Commons, if the opinion of the Speaker
or Chairman as to (he decision of a question
is challenged, he directs that the lobbies be
cleared. After two minutes he puts the
question again, and, if his opinion is still
challenged, he nominates tellers, and directs
the "ayes" and the "noes" to go into the
right and left lobbies. Whilst meml • 1

First Lord of the Treasury. Is
Chief of the Commissioners appointed to
execute the office of Lord High Treasurer,
but as such takes no great part in the
management of the Treasury. He has
several Civil Service appointments in his
gift, and nominates to Crown livings and
Civil Li*t pensions. This is the position
usually, though not always, taken by the
Prime Minister or the Leader of the House
of Commons.
Foreign Affairs, Secretary of
State for. Has the exclusive charge of
the interests of the British Empire and
British subjects in foreign countries. He
negotiates all treaties, leagues, and alliances
with foreign states, either directly with the
Foreign Minister at this Court, or through
the British Ambassador abroad ; and is the
official organ and responsible adviser to the
Crown in all communications between his
Government and foreign powers.
Franchise. In law, is defined as
"a Royal privilege, or a branch of the
Sovereign's prerogative subsisting in the
hands of a subject." As applied to Parlia-
ment the term means the right to vote at an
election for a member of Parliament. Under
the Representation of the People Act (1918)
the franchise extends to all men of full age
(not subject to legal incapacity), and having
the requisite residential or business premises
qualification (six months) ; women on attain-
ing the age of thirty and being entitled to be
registered as Local Government Electors or
whose husbands are so entitled ; and those
employed on war service on attaining the
age of nineteen {i.e. naval and military em-
ployment, Red Cross work, etc., merchant
seamen, pilots, and fishermen. University
Franchise demands for men in England and
Wales receipt of a degree (not honorary),
while women must have fulfilled certain
conditions.
Freemen. Ave persons who have been
admitted to the freedom of a corporate town,
or of any other corporate body.
Friday Sittings. The House meets
every Friday (up to 1902 it used to be
Wednesday) at twelve o'clock. Friday until
Whitsuntide is set apart for the bills brought
in by private members, and the House, unless
previously adjourned, continues to sit until
the business of the day is disposed of, or until
5.30 p.m. (no opposed business being taken
after five). On the disposal of business, or at
5.30, the Speaker adjourns the House without
putting any question, and the business under
discussion, or undisposed of, stands among
the orders of the day for the next sitting of
the House.
General Election. [See Election
of Members.]
Government Business. Unless the
House otherwise direct, Government busi-
ness has precedence at every sitting except
after 8.15 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday
and at the sitting on Friday; after 8.15
p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday notices of
motion and public bills, other than Govern-
ment bills, have precedence of Government
business ; after Easter, Government business
has precedence during the whole of the
Tuesday sittings ; after Whitsuntide, Govern-
ment business has precedence at all sittings,
except on the third and fourth Fridays
after Whit Sunday.
Government Orders, are the bills
brought in by the Government and other
Government business appointed by the

Home Department, Secretary of
State for. The duties and responsibilities
of this high officer comprehend the main-
tenance of the internal peace of the United
Kingdom, the security of the laws, ami the
general supervision of matters relating to the
administration of criminal justice.
House of Commons. According to
the theory of the English constitution, the
House of Commons represents the whole
population, and it is unconstitutional to sup-
pose that members are delegates of any
special community. Each member is held
to represent the interests of the nation. The
proceedings of the Commons are regulated
by standing orders, which are the per-
manent bye-laws of the House, by sessional
orders renewed annually, and by the custom
of Parliament, as embodied in rules and regu-
lations established by usage, or laid down in
the journals. The following is an outline of
parliamentary practice : — A motion for the
grant of public money may not be presently
entered upon, but must be put to the vote
on a future day in a Committee of the whole
House, having received the previous recom-
mendation of the Crown. Notice, as a rule,
must be given of every motion, and, except
in committee, it must be seconded. There
must never be more than one question before
the House at the same time. However many
amendments may be proposed upon amotion,
each one is separately disposed of. If there
be a majority for any words standing part of
a question to be put to the House, then a vote
is taken on the question with these words
in it. In case of the rejection of every
amendment, then the original proposal, what-
ever it may be, motion or bill, is put to the
vote, stripped of all the counter proposals
which the debate has called forth. No mem-
ber can thus be driven to vote for what he
does not approve ; for after having voted in
favor of such amendments as he may propose
to the original question, he can vote against
it in the end. No motion or bill may be
offered upon which a judgment has been
expressed during the current session ; a
resolution may, however, be rescinded, or an
order of the House discharged. A bill that
has passed both Houses contains all the
sentences and words composing the Act of
Parliament to which the Royal Assent is
given. When a member speaks, it must be
to some question before the House, or to
introduce a question. The mover of a
substantive motion is permitted a reply,
and those who have spoken to the original
question may speak again when an amend-
ment or a new question, such as the adjourn-
ment of the debate has been proposed :
but otherwise no one is entitled to more
than one opportunity of speaking on a
question, except when the House is in Com-
mittee. No member may call another by his
name ; if it is desired to call personal atten-
tion to him, he must be referred to by his con-

ill is converted into law unless it ha-«
(subject to the provisions of the Parliament
rail) received the duly expressed ap-
I of both Houses and has received the
Royal Assent. Public bills for imposing taxes
or charges begin with the Commons. Bills
for restitution of honours and in blood (which
are, however, very rare) begin in the Peers.
A member who moves the adjournment of
a debate is by courtesy entitled to speak
rir>t when the debate is resumed. Hut this
rule does not apply to the renewal of debate
in a Committee of the whole House. For
the sake of convenience, certain parties-
ministerial, opposition, or otherwise— group
themselves on benches which they appropriate
to themselves. When several memlx--
to address the House, the Speaker or Chair-
man signifies who shall have precedence ; this
is known as " catching the Speaker's eye."

of the Throne, next to the Earl Marshal . The
old State Chair occupied by the Sovereign
on these occasions was designed l>y Augustus
Welby Pugin, the eminent architect, who
was employed in the designing, erection,
and decoration of the Houses of Parliament ;
it has been in the House of Lords since the
completion of that Chamber, and was used
by Queen Victoria when she opened or
prorogued Parliament in person. The State
Chair provided for the Queen Consort is an
exact replica of the old, but an inch and a half
lower. The frame is mahogany elaborately
carved, but the wood is nowhere visible, being
entirely covered with a rich gilding of
English leaf-gold, the legs resting upon four
lions couchant. The back is gabled and of
lofty pitch, with moulded columns on each
side, surmounted by a lion and a unicorn
holding scrolls, while in the centre, higher
still, is a representation of the Imperial
Crown. In the middle of the back are the
quarterings of the Royal Arms of England,
embroidered with gold-coloured silk on
crimson velvet, with a surrounding border
studded with pieces of rock crystal. The
cushion to the seat is also of crimson velvet
richly embroidered with the white Tudor
rose and leafage. There is also a gilded
footstool to match, which is oblong in shape,
the top being covered with velvet em-
broidered in gold, the pattern being sprays
of roses with a border of fleur-de-lis.

[See Estates of the Realm.]
Parliament Act. The main pro-
visions of the Parliament Act 191 1 (1 & 2
George V. c 13) are : (1) If the Lords with-
hold their assent to a money bill for more
than one month after the bill has reached
them, the bill may be presented for the
King's assent, and, on that assent being
given, will become law without the consent
of the Lords. The Act gives a definition of
a "money bill," and it is for the Speaker
of the House of Commons to certify that a
bill falls within the definition. Before giving
his certificate he is to consult two Members
of the House of Commons for that purpose. I
(2) If a bill other than a money bill is passed
by the Commons in three successive Sessions,
whether of the same Parliament or not, it
may, on a third rejection by the Lords, be
presented for the King's assent, and, on that
assent being given, will become law. But
two years must elapse between the date of
the second reading in the first of those
Sessions and the date at which the bill
parses the Commons a third time. Pro-
vision is made against the identity of a bill
being destroyed by the introduction of
amendments made necessary by lapse of
time or agreed to by both Houses. (3) Five
years was substituted for seven years as the
maximum duration of a Parliament. [This
period has been specially extended on
several occasions during the War.

of Parliament, for the redress of grievances.
Petitions to Parliament must be drawn up
according to prescribed rules ; those to the
House of Lords must be addressed, To tin
Right Honorable the Lords Spiritual and
Temporal in Parliament Assembled : and
those to the House of Commons must be
directed, To the Honorable the Knights
Citizens, and Burgesses of the I 'nited king-
dom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parlia-
ment Assembled ; or, To the Honorable the
Commons of the United Kingdom in Parlia-
ment Assembled. Electors commence their
petition as, The Humble Petition 0/ the
Electors 0/ the Parish 0/ , sheiveth
that, etc., and a private individual must set
forth his name and occupation thus. — The
Humble Petition of'J'homas Charles Burd,

this must be mentioned the grievance for
which relief is desired, and the whole must
conclude with a specific prayer, as, Where-
fore your Petitioners humbly pray that your
Honorable House tvill be pleased to, etc.
Here must follow particulars of the special

of grievances. Immediately following the
prayer must be written the signatures, one
of which, at least, must be written on the
same skin of parchment, or sheet of paper, as
the petition. All signature, or marks must
be original, procuration not being in any
case allowed, except in cases of incapacity by

body of persons, but the common seal of a
corporation is acknowledged as a petition of
the whole corporate body. Every petition
must be written upon paper or parchment,
be free from erasures or interlineation, and
written in the English language, or accom-
panied by a literal translation which the
member presenting it certifies to be correct ;
but no letters, affidavits, or other documents
will be received. Only thosi signatures are
reckoned as valid which are written on sheets
headed in every case by the prayer of the
petition : but on every sheet after the first
the praxer may be reproduced in print, or by
other mechanical process. Petitions are re-
jected which contain intemperate language,
or imputations upon the character or conduct
of either House of Parliament, the Courts of
ic, or other constituted authorities.
Reference is not allowed to be made to any
debates, or to matters therein referred to,
but petitions may refer to motions of which
due notice has been given : while petitions
praying for a grant of public money, or
ge upon the revenues of India, or for
the remission of taxes or dues, are not

t to bills that have passed the Houses

Sovereign in person, or by Commissioners
appointed for that special purpose. The
Commissioners are usually three or four of
the high officers of State. As soon as the
Royal Assent has been given, the Bill imme-
diately becomes an Act, having the effect
and force of law.

Seals of Office. When a change
of Government takes place two Councils are
held, at the first of which the various offices
are given up, and the Ministers appointed
under seal thereupon hand hack then
to the Sovereign ; at the sec did the succes-
iti office kiss hands on appointment and
take over the relinquished seals. Secre-
taries of State are appointed under patent,
so that in their case there are no seals to
give up. On a reconstruction of a Ministry
one Council only is usually necessary.
HON, TlIK COMMITTE!
Nominates the members on, and arranges the
sitting and business of private-bill committees,
and is also charged with the nomination of
the Standing Committees.
;. The. Is the mem-
ber returned at the head of the poll, not the
member who has served the constituency the
longest time.
Serjeant-at-Arms, The. is an offi-
cer appointed 1>\ patent under the Great Seal,
attached to the House, who is styled "the
Serjeant-at-Arms attending the Speaker of the
House of Commons." He is assisted !>>•:■
deputy and several subordinates, and is also
Housekeeper of the House of Commons.
During the sitting of the House he occupies
a chair below the bar, and to him is delegated
the maintenance of order in the appi
to the House and the adjoining offices. His
duties are performed under the directions of
the House, communicated to him by the
Speaker. He apprehends and retains in
custody all persons committed by order of
the House.
Session. The Session of Parliament
continues from the time of its meeting until
it is either prorogued or dissolved. The
House of Commons limits to one year the
duration of the Army Annual Act, and votes
the supplies for the public service by grants
limited to the current year. The Crown is
therefore compelled to resort to an annual
assemblage of Parliament, which usually
takes place early in February. Six days at
least, but generally thirty or forty clays,
previous to the intended meeting, a procla-
mation is issued by the Crown, commanding
the attendance of both Houses for despatch
of business, usually at Westminster, but it
maybe at anyplace within the United King-
dom. The business usually transacted at the
commencement of every Session is to consider
the Speech from the Throne. One Bill, how-
ever, always receives a first reading, in order
to assert the right of Parliament to protect
the interests of the people before considering
the subjects contained in the Royal Speech.
No number or length of adjournments de-
stroys the continuity of the Session. [See
also Prorogation.]
H inal Orders are agreed to at the
commencement of each Session, and are not
intended to continue beyond that period.
SITTINGS. On Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday the House usually
sits from 2.45 to 11 p.m.; or, for non
contentious business until 11.30 p.m. There
is. as a rule, no sitting on Saturday, and on
Friday (when the House meets at 12) the
adjournment takes place not later than
5.30 o'clock.

the debates, the Speaker calls on those mem-
bers to address the House who, in his opinion,
are entitled to precedence ; he promptly and
decisively i ei effect

When he rises to enforce a point of order,
the House is immediately silent ; and his
deciM il>le on prece-
dent, is, as a rule, accepted without cavil.
But >till the ultimate authority, upon all
points, is the House itself. He also pr

the displeasure of the House ; issues warrants
of committal for breach of privilege ; com-

over the business of the House, both public
and private ; expresses the thanks or appro-
bation of the Commons to distinguished per-
„es; adjourns the House if forty members

Speaker may withhold his assent to a motion
for the closure of a debate ; he may, after

ber, direct him to discontinue his speech,

opinion, an abuse of the forms of the 1 1

t. The business of Supply is the first
order of the day on Thursday, unless other-
wise ordered by the House. Not more
than 20 days, being days before the 5th of
August, are allotted for the consideration
of the annual estimates for the Army, Navy,
and Civil Services, including votes on ac-
count. An additional 3 days either before
or after 5th of August may be allotted for
the business of Supply on motion made after
notice by a Minister of the Crown.
Suspension from the service of the
House is a punishment imposed on members
who have been named by the Speaker or the
Chairman of Committees, for an infraction of
the rules of the House of Commons. The
effect of an amendment made in the Standing
Orders in 1002 is that an Order of Suspen-
sion made in pursuance of Standing Orders
remains in force until the end of the Session,
unless previously revoked. But suspension
may be ordered otherwise than in pursuance
of Standing Orders.
SWEARING In. The administration of
the oath or affirmation to the members of the
House of Commons at the beginning of a
new Parliament is conducted in the fol-
lowing manner :— The oath is administered,
in the first instance, to such Members, not
exceeding five in number, as are of His
Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council
and to Members who have held office under
the Crown, and then to such Members as
may present themselves, being five in number,
for that purpose at the table. In no case is
the oath administered to more than five
Members at the same time, in order that the
process of signing the roll and the introduc-
tion of Members to the Speaker may be con-
ducted-wit h due regularity. Members should
refrain from presenting themselves at the
table for the purpose of taking the oath until
all the Members to whom the oath is being
administered have left the table, so that
Members may be able to take and subscribe
the oath without delay or inconvenience.
Members should not leave the table until
they have signed the roll and have been
introduced to Mr. Speaker.
Teller. Is a member appointed by the
Speaker when a division takes place, to count
the number of members voting for or against
a motion. Two are appointed for each side.
'•That I do now Leave the Chair."
Is the question put by the Speaker on the
occasions when it is needful, before the whole
House goes into Committee.
"That the Orders of the Day be
now Rkad." That the House proceed to
the business of the day without further
decision taking place on the motion then
under discussion.
"This Day Six (or Three) Months."
The motion that a bill be read a second time
upon this day six months, is the ordinary
mode of moving its rejection.
Time of Meeting. The House meets
on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and
Thursdays at a quarter to three o'clock, when
the Chaplain reads prayers. The business
of each sitting is conducted according to
the following routine -.—When private busi-
ness has been disposed of— i.e., usually
about three o'clock— the putting of questions
to members of the Government begins, and
continues until 3-45, after which five minutes
is allowed for questions of special public
importance or relating to the arrangement
of business. The real work of the day is
then entered upon, and the regular business
of the sitting is commenced, namely, the
consideration of the orders or moti
down for that day. The House continues
business until half-past eleven o'clock unless
previously adjourned, but only unopposed
business is taken after eleven o clock, unless
what is called the " eleven o'clock rule "
is suspended. On Fridays the House meets
at noon.

Vacating Seats. By accepting an
office of emolument from the Crown, a mem-
ber at once vacates his seat. It is customary
for a member who wishes to resign to
apply for the sinecure Stewardship of His
Majesty's Chiltern Hundreds, or of the
Manor of Northstead (for seats thus vacated
no re-election can take place during recess).

CONSTITUTION OF THE HOUSE OF COMMoN'N ETC.
CONSTITUTION OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
At the time of the Union with Scotland, in 1707, the House consisted of 513 members ; 45 were then
added for Scotland, and in 1801, 100 were added for Ireland, making the total of 658. This number
was preserved by the Reform Acts of 1832 and 1868, but in each case the apportionment was altered,
and in 1885 it nominally stood— England and Wales 493, Scotland 60, and Ireland 105, but by the
disfranchisement of Beverley (2), Bridgwater (2), Cashel (1), and Sligo (1 ), the total 1
was reduced to 652 members. The result of the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 was to increase
the total number of members elected for counties, boroughs ami universities to 670, and the
Representation of the People Act (iqi8) raised the total to 707, the basis being on* Member for
every 70,000 of population in (Ireat Britain, and one for every 43,000 in Ireland. Distribution is

S comprehensive, practical,
and easy of reference, and
divided into three sections :
1.— Chapters on general matters,
and useful hints on the
actual Depiction of Arms.
2.— An Alphabetical List of
Heraldic Terms, Phrases,
etc., interspersed with
copious illustrations and
diagrams.
3.— A series of Plates of actual
Coats -of- Arms used
throughout the work as
illustrative examples with
efficient cross-references.
Coats-of-Arrns or Heraldic devices are often features in
design ; it is, therefore, with a desire to help the beginner
and the amateur who— possibly artists— may wish to depict
such devices that this volume is issued at a popular price.
Possible Heraldic pitfalls are pointed out, and the steps
to be taken to avoid them indicated clearly and concisely.
Those interested in deciphering some Coat-of-Arms or
Crest, or desirous of designing, drawing, and painting any
Heraldic achievement for ornamental or decorative pur-
poses, bookplates, stained glass, wood-carving, or other use,
will find this book just what they want to help them to
obtain practical results.
